BELLEFONTE, Pa. (AP) — A central Pennsylvania man is convicted of exposing himself and assaulting women inside Penn State residence halls and off-campus apartments over two years.

Ryan Ho was found guilty Thursday of 72 charges including assault and indecent exposure. The verdict followed two hours of jury deliberations after the three-day trial in Centre County court.

The prosecution said DNA evidence linked Ho to several crime scenes and his confession to police after his arrest in May 2011.

More than a dozen victims testified in person and by video. Police said over time Ho's behavior grew more aggressive, as he began grabbing and fondling his victims and physically blocking them from escaping.
